Abstract
Cell suspension culture of poppy was permeabilized by Tween 80 and imm obilized by glutaraldehyde. beta-Galactosidase showed optimum pH 4.8 a nd temperature of 50 degrees C. The enzyme hydrolysis was linear durin g 3 h reaching 68% conversion. The cells characterized by high beta-ga lactosidase activity and stability in long-term storage showed conveni ent physico-mechanical properties.
